Solve for y both expressions and make them equal.


\begin{gathered} -5y=-2x \\ y=(2)/(5)x \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} 2x+3y=0 \\ 3y=-2x \\ y=-(2)/(3)x \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} (2)/(5)x=-(2)/(3)x \\ (2)/(5)x+(2)/(3)x=0 \\ (16)/(15)x=0 \\ x=0 \end{gathered}

Using this value of x, find y:


\begin{gathered} y=(2)/(5)x \\ y=0 \end{gathered}

The solution of this system is x=0 and y=0
